Abstract

Currently, students often feel bored with the teaching and learning activities in the classroom, especially in Mathematics learning, for that a learning style approach is needed that is adjusted to the needs of each student. The purpose of studying content differentiation through videos for elementary school children is to provide a more meaningful learning experience and in accordance with the needs and learning styles of each student, facilitate diverse learning styles and provide an interactive learning experience. By using visual and auditory content videos, learning for grade 3 elementary school children greatly helps students understand the material to be studied; after watching the video, the teacher can interact directly with students through questions or quizzes based on the learning videos that have been watched by students. The method used in this study is qualitative, where this approach focuses on an in-depth understanding of socio-cultural phenomena and human behavior through non-numerical data. Qualitative research emphasizes the context of the process and quality rather than measurement. In this study, video content differentiation is a strategy where creators and content providers provide a variety of learning styles to students.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of the Merdeka Mengajar Platform on the development of teacher competencies in junior high schools in Mesuji District. In the digital era, this platform is presented by the government to support improving the quality of learning and teacher professional development through access to teaching materials, learning evaluations, and independent training. This study uses a literature review approach by reviewing a number of national scientific articles related to the implementation and impact of the Merdeka Mengajar Platform on teacher pedagogical, professional, and digital competencies. This study found that the use of the Merdeka Mengajar platform significantly contributed to improving teacher pedagogical and professional competencies through the provision of curriculum-appropriate materials and technology skills training. The results of the study showed that teachers experienced increased skills in preparing learning plans based on the Merdeka curriculum, as well as increased competence in utilizing technology for a more effective and efficient learning process. The novelty of this study lies in the focus of the analysis of the impact of the platform on a specific area, namely Mesuji District, which previously received less attention in national research. The contribution of this study is to provide recommendations for policymakers and platform developers to continue to improve relevant features and content and for schools to encourage the use of this platform as an integral part of teacher professional development in the future.

Abstract

Academic supervision is one of the main tasks and responsibilities of the principal. This study aims to describe the implementation of supervision of the principal of a public elementary school according to the perception of teachers. The study was conducted in Kayu Agung sub-district, Ogan Komering Ilir district, South Sumatra Province by distributing questionnaires to teachers. The research questionnaire used has been validated using the expert judgment technique. Data from the questionnaire were processed quantitatively using the percentage technique. The results of the study showed that the principal of SD Negeri 1 Beti Jaya studied had carried out academic supervision tasks. Of all the tasks, the task of motivating teachers to utilize information technology in learning in each subject is the task with the highest implementation. Conversely, the task with the lowest implementation is understanding the concepts, principles, theories/technologies, characteristics, and development trends of the learning/guidance process for each subject and is in the fourth indicator, namely planning supervision activities with teachers. Thus, the implementation of academic supervision of the principal at SD Negeri 1 Beti Jaya still needs to be improved.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the problem-based learning method (PBL) in improving student learning outcomes in economics subjects at SMA Negeri 15 Palembang. The research method used was a quasi-experimental with a non-equivalent control group design, involving two classes of XI IPS selected as the experimental and control groups. The experimental group received economics learning with the PBL method, while the control group used conventional learning methods. Data were collected through learning outcome tests (pre-test and post-test) and analyzed using paired sample t-tests and independent sample t-tests to determine significant differences in learning outcomes between the two groups. The results showed that there was a significant increase in the learning outcomes of the experimental group compared to the control group. The average post-test score in the experimental group was higher than in the control group, indicating that the PBL method is effective in improving students’ understanding and critical thinking skills in economics material. In addition, observations during learning showed that the PBL method increased students’ active involvement in group discussions and problem-solving processes. This study concludes that the PBL method is an effective approach to improve students’ economic learning outcomes and can be used as an alternative learning method in the school curriculum. Recommendations are given for teachers to receive training to implement PBL optimally, as well as support from the school in providing adequate resources. The implication of this study is that PBL not only improves academic learning outcomes but also students’ collaborative and independent skills, which are important to face the challenges of 21st-century education.

Abstract

This research examines government strategies in strengthening the small industrial economy or MSMEs to enhance economic resilience. This research uses a literature study method. It uses the defense strategy theory introduced by Arthur F. Lykke, which includes the aspects of way, means, and end. The research results show that, from the ‘way’ aspect, the government, through the RPJMN 2020 - 2024, has committed to strengthening entrepreneurship and MSMEs through five priority areas: developing human resources (HR), increasing access to financial services, increasing the added value of MSME products in domestic and international markets, strengthening partnerships, and improving regulations and policies affecting MSME sustainability, some of which have not been fully implemented by the government. From the ‘means’ aspect, existing resources have not been optimally utilized by the government, such as the empowerment of human resources, which has not been optimal.

Abstract

The role of PT Pindad in the national economy is often overlooked and considered to only contribute to the defense sector. However, PT Pindad has greater potential as a locomotive of the country’s economy. The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of PT Pindad in increasing economic growth in Indonesia based on Biddle & Thomas’ role theory including Role Behavior, Role Conflict and Role Ambiguity. This research method is a qualitative description using literature review. The results showed that PT Pindad plays an important role in increasing national economic growth and other industrial sectors. There are complex dynamics in PT Pindad’s role behavior such as role conflict between business and defense missions. Role ambiguity arises due to dependence on government budgets. To achieve the independence of Indonesia’s defense industry, it is recommended that the government focus more on encouraging PT Pindad’s market expansion globally.

Abstract

Regional autonomy grants significant authority to local governments to manage regional potential and improve society’s welfare. One of the indicators of the success of regional autonomy is fiscal independence in managing regional finances. Although decentralization policies have been implemented for a long time, local governments still rely on central funding for routine and regional development expenditures. The abundance of authority granted by the central government to local governments forms the basis for local government’s decisions and actions in planning regional development and welfare through the optimization of regional original revenue (PAD). This study examines the strategic role of local governments in optimizing regional original revenue as a step toward fiscal independence. The study uses qualitative methods and descriptive techniques, applying Biddle and Thomas's role theory, which focuses on behavior, conflict, and ambiguity in roles. The results show that the role theory framework highlights the complexity of local government functions, where role conflicts and ambiguities hinder effective revenue management. Strengthening governance, improving administrative capacity, leveraging digital solutions, and enhancing public awareness are key to optimizing PAD collection. Clear role allocation and coordination among agencies are crucial to reducing dependency on central funding and ensuring sustainable regional development.
